I don't doubt that your SLI rig will be suffering. That is the only reason why I might not buy the game, because I know, with dense airports, my computer will not handle it (running a P4 3ghz and a 6800gtoc).

Plane controls suck too impossible to fly with a keyboard.

I spend all of last night like 10 hours+ downloading this @ 5kb/s from gamespot and when I go to open the file it said file is damaged.

So I downloaded it again and it's damaged again.

The graphics look awesome, having a problem using left rudder for some odd reason when the right works perfectly fine, did the mission again, landed the plane flawlessly, and couldn't go left so I had to use the good old fashion way of using the flaps :D... however I crashed into the building using that idea so I failed the mission lol! :D

It's not bad at all, considering the last one I played was 2002 (not sure why I never ended up trying 2004) :p.

WHAT THE HELL? There's a freaking time limit on the demo which NO ONE SAID ANYTHING ABOUT.

I was just about to finish the mission that they included with the demo... and JUST AS I was about to touchdown to the runway... "Thank you for playing blah blah blah blah, your time limit on the demo has expired."

But I did get the flickering problem as well waiting for new drivers on nvidia's side to fix the AA on it, as it seems it isn't working and to boost up a few things. :D

So far very impressed but overall after all this wait I don't know if it was worth it.

I thought this was DX10 wasn't it?
That is what I thought - I would guess there are two versions - one for Vista (DX10) and one for everyone else.

The one thing I noticed over earlier versions was "moving" ground traffic on the tarmac near the gates. I own 2002 Professional, so I don't know if that was included in the 2K4 version.
